The modeling diagrams

Business Application Modeling is based on several diagrams. Each diagram has its own purpose for modeling the application's features and behavior.

Diagrams are used at all stages in the development. They serve as inputs for code generation, and are considered source code for the application. They are always up to date. Diagrams can be customized with additional properties using the settings.agconf configuration file.
